Mauritius properties: Mauritius nature and activities Mauritius nature and activities ================================================================================ marat on 19 June, 2008 02:48:00 About Mauritius Economy Government and Politics Tourism Nature and Activities Mauritius boasts a huge range of sea treasures and infinite wealth. The Mauritian sea never fails to surprise: multi-coloured fish, moray eels, magnificent coral beds. Lagoons of a typically tropical sweetness and endless white beaches: Mauritius is a real paradise for those who want to enjoy the sea or just to soak up the sun. Grand Bay is one of the best areas for sailing, windsurfing and water skiing. La Cuvette beach in the area has been recently upgraded to high standards. If you imagine a tropical paradise with iridescent beaches and excellent diving - in Mauritius your fantasy will come true. Many places provide windsurfing and kayaking equipment for their customers, and for those who prefer less strenuous communing, there's usually a glass-bottom boat to be found. For Jules Verne fans, lead-booted, bubble-headed 'undersea walks' can be arranged near Grand Baie reef, as can a ride on La Nessee, a semi-submersible boat - sort of like a submarine - that allows a close-up tour of the reefs without the nuisance of getting wet. Mauritius is a paradise for deep sea fishing. Species include the blue or black marlin, all types of sharks, yellow tuna, the Bonitos, the emperor, the pélerin, the bécune or the barracuda. What could be more pleasant than being on holiday on a dream island whilst having the opportunity to improve your golfing skills. Invigorate yourself. Go mountain climbing or explore nature through forests, plants or endemic flowers. Enjoy the spectacular beauty of waterfalls or live an exciting adventure by going down the waterfalls. Those seeking well-being during their holidays should be sure to visit the spas, new oases of peace where time stands still. Mauritius offers several world-class items.
